Comparative analysis of distribution and drug resistance of pathogenic bacteria in lower respiratory tract infection among children and adults in Nanjing area / 国际检验医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To understand the epidemic trend and drug susceptibility of pathogenic bacteria in children with lower re-spiratory tract infection to provide the basis for clinical rational drug use.Methods The sputum culture specimens in these two hospitals during 2013 were performed the pathogenic bacterial culture and the drug susceptibility test respectively.The results were conducted the comparative analysis.Results 6124 strains of bacteria were isolated from the children lower respiratory tract sputum specimens in our hospital during 2013,including 5 121 strains of Gram negative bacteria,accounting for 62.7%,which were domina-ted by Haemophilus influenzae,Klebsiella pneumoniae,Escherichia coli,Bauman Acinetobacter and Pseudomonas aeruginosa;Gram positive bacteria were 2734 strains,accounting for 33.5%,the top two were Streptococcus pneumoniae and Staphylococcus aureus;311 strains of fungi,accounting for 3.8%,and Candida albicans was predominant.1600 strains of bacteria were isolated from the lower respiratory tract sputum specimens in Nanjing Brain Hospital during 2013,including 1 134 strains of Gram negative bacteria, accounting for 70.9%,which were dominated by Klebsiella pneumoniae,Escherichia coli,Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Acinetobact-er Bauman;296 strains of Gram positive bacteria,accounting for 18.5%,Staphylococcus aureus was predominant;170 strains of fungi,accounting for 10.6%,Candida albicans was predominant.The sensitive drugs to Gram-negative bacilli were piperacillin /tazobactam and imipenem,while the sensitive drugs to Gram-positive bacilli were linezolid and vancomycin.Conclusion The Gram negative bacteria are the main pathogens of lower respiratory infection in children,and strengthening bacterial culture and drug re-sistance monitoring is necessary for rational use of antibacterial drugs.
